For over
50 years, ACM SIGMIS Computers and People Research (CPR)
conference has engaged the academic and practitioner
communities in understanding issues pertaining to the
intersection of information technology and people. From
its roots in the IT workforce, CPR has broadened its
focus to deal with all aspects of this important and
complex relationship. We are delighted to welcome the
2019 ACM SIGMIS CPR conference to exciting Nashville,
Tennessee from June 20-22, 2019.
In the
world of information systems, some issues are
transitory, and some endure. The focus of the 2019
conference is on these enduring questions. A few of the
enduring questions are:
Individual
·
What leads to individuals resisting the use of IT
(resistance, workarounds, BYOD)?
·
What are the impacts of emerging technologies (social
media, analytics, blockchain) on workers?
·
How does the design of a system or technology impact
worker acceptance and/or resistance?
·
How do individual humans interact with robotic
co-workers?
Organizational
·
How can organizations understand emerging technologies
and their potential risks and opportunities?
·
What factors impact retention and turnover in the IT
workforce?
·
What unique challenges exist for managing IT workers,
and how do we meet those challenges?
·
What is the business value of IT? From what does this
value derive?
·
What are the best ways to organize IT work?
·
Will emerging IT enable new organizational forms? What
are those forms?
Societal
·
How does IT impact the nature of work? How will IT
impact the nature of work in the future?
·
How can we address the various digital divides?
·
How does the interaction of IT and people impact
innovation, and how is innovation impacted by this
interaction?
·
How does IT impact entrepreneurial activities?
Workforce
·
Why are some demographic groups under-represented in
the IT workforce?
·
What are the characteristics of the IT workforce? How
are these characteristics changing?
·
How can universities best prepare students for careers
in information systems and information technology?
·
What are the key skills for entry into the IT
workforce? How are these skills changing?
·
What ethical issues result from embedding IT in work?
·
What security and privacy issues result from embedding
IT in work?
IS
Education
·
How do we help students develop the skills needed for
entry into, and success in the IT workforce?
·
How can we attract promising students to IS programs?
·
How should IS programs deal with emerging technologies?
·
How do IS programs differentiate themselves from
computer science, analytics, data science and other
overlapping programs?
·
How can universities best prepare students for careers
in information systems and information technology?
In
addition to the conference theme, we also invite
submissions to a general Information Systems track that
broadly addresses issues at the intersection of
information technology and people.
Doctoral
Consortium
A
doctoral consortium will take place as in previous years
in conjunction with the CPR 2019 conference. It is meant
for students spanning those at an early stage in their
doctoral program to those who are more advanced and are
at the stage of writing their dissertation proposal, and
who are conducting research on a topic related to the
conference theme or to the broad focus of the CPR
conference on understanding issues pertaining to the
intersection of information technology and people. The
purpose of the consortium is two-fold: 1) provide
feedback and guidance to students on their proposal
while at a stage where feedback can be considered for
future dissertation work, and 2) provide mentoring and
networking opportunities to students who wish to pursue
careers as researchers at the intersection of
information systems and people.
Doctoral
students must be nominated to the consortium by a
faculty sponsor. Students nominated for the consortium
should submit via email to Dr. Indira Guzman (Indira.Guzman@trident.edu)
a 10-page research proposal (including all text,
figures, and references; double space) to be reviewed by
a panel of highly qualified senior faculty mentors. The
doctoral students selected to participate in the
doctoral consortium will receive one round of written
feedback on their proposal.
At the
conference, each student will have 15-20 minutes to
present their research ideas and receive feedback
in-person from experienced researchers and fellow
consortium participants. The doctoral consortium will
allow activities in plenary mode and intense workshop
sessions in smaller groups. The submission deadline for
doctoral consortium application is the same as the
general submission deadline. Accepted students may
choose to publish the full proposal that was submitted
for evaluation or an extended abstract of their proposal
in the conference proceedings.
Funding
will be available to assist with travel and registration
fees to students selected for the doctoral consortium.
Proceedings
Accepted
papers will be published by ACM in the refereed
conference proceedings, which will be distributed at the
conference. Authors of accepted papers may choose to
publish complete papers or extended abstracts of their
research in the conference proceedings. All completed
research papers that are to be published in their
entirety in the conference proceedings will be
considered for the Magid Igbaria Outstanding Conference
Paper of the Year Award. The Magid Igbaria Outstanding
Conference Paper and other exemplar papers will be
invited for publication in the DATA BASE for Advances in
Information Systems—the quarterly journal publication of
ACM SIGMIS. Articles will not be published in the event
proceedings if at least one author of a submitted work
is unable to present their article at the conference.
AUTHORS
TAKE NOTE: The official publication date is the date the
proceedings are made available in the ACM Digital
Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the
first day of your conference. The official publication
date affects the deadline for any patent filings related
to published work. (For those rare conferences whose
proceedings are published in the ACM Digital Library
after the conference is over, the official publication
date remains the first day of the conference.)
Conference
Location
Nashville,
Tennessee is known as the Home of Country Music, but it
has much more to offer. Nashville is the state capital,
and is home to numerous higher education institutions,
including Vanderbilt University, Tennessee State
University, Belmont University, and Lipscomb University.
Healthcare, not music, is Nashville’s largest industry,
employing 200,000 and contributing $30,000,000,000 to
the regional economy. Nashville is also the third
fastest growing economy in the United States. As one
might expect, Nashville has a lively music scene in
addition to the honky-tonk music venues along the famed
“District,” the city boasts a major performing arts
center and opera and ballet companies, along with the
Nashville Symphony. Nashville is home to numerous
country music icons, such as the Ryman Auditorium, the
Grand Ole Opry House, and the Country Music Hall of Fame
and Museum, but also boasts numerous art centers and
museums, and a botanical garden. The Nashville
International Airport provides direct flights to over
fifty cities, including London (Heathrow), Dallas, Los
Angeles, New York (JFK and LaGuardia), Chicago, and
Washington D.C. (Reagan and Dulles).
